Château Les Hautes De Palette Blend - Meritage 2009

Intriguing aromas of raspberry tart, cherry, lilac and underbrush. Elegance meets good depth of fruit, packed in a medium-bodied frame. Finely structured and smoothly textured. Although it will evolve nicely over 5+ years, it will pair nicely with roast lamb or osso buco tonight. (VINTAGES panel, Aug. 2012)
